What I meant was, I wished that Kira kept the Strike(or a simple upgrade of Strike). Freedom worsened his skills and made him rely too much on the Freedom's clear advantages rather than thinking up of how to make advantages. It's a clear difference, with Strike, Kira was always looking on options on how he can take down the enemy...In Freedom it's just pew pew lock lock lock, Fire.... and it really gets boring. I like Kira to regain his grit. Him not trying to kill people is what irritates me the most.

The thing about Kira's character is that everything that had mentally and emotionally affected him had caused his character to be somewhat emotionally passive. It's not that he doesn't display emotions, it's just not as expressive as his 1st half-SEED self, and moments of emotional weakness during the 2nd half of SEED.

If everyone important to Kira dies however especially Lacus, it might be possible.

At this point I would say the seed movie is in the same waiting queue as the new UC series they have been promising since before Gundam Seed, lol.
As I see it, Sunrise's mecha priorities are: Gundam 00 1st Season Code Geass 2nd Season Gundam 00 2nd Season After all of these are produced could I see production of Gundam Seed the Movie being resumed (meaning Spring 2009 prod start, Fall 2009, Spring 2010 release date at the earliest) Maybe check the GS VA's blogs and see if they have mentioned it at all. And please, the whole "its still being made but 'top secret'" excuse is lame at best. Sunrise is not known for being very leakproof. No models have been rumored, not a mention on anyone's blog, nothing since May 6th, 2006 when it was announced. I want a new GS production as much as anyone, but right now, it aint happening. Btw, Gundam 00=Gundam Wing+Code Geass. Not saying its bad, but it is what it is. |

hehe, what I also like in Gundam 00 is not only the mechas but the characters as well. Celestial Being is like Lelouch to Code Geass. And after Gundam 00 Season 1, here comes Code Geass Season 2.
Pride: Maybe u can use ur Hissatsu Attack Climax Version on D-KLAC to surely knock some sense on him. Then I'll use my Wild Shot finisher on him too. |

Somehow, I don't see any of the OO characters developed to such extent as Lelouch was. But hell, this is a Gundam SEED thread so let's talk about SEED.
Nobody wants the SEED production now. One just wishes it'd come up in a couple of years at worst Even if Destiny was not focused on Kira to such extent as the first series (obviously), there was still too much of him IMO. If they wanted to limit him to the role of a pacifist own-all android they could've done it pretty much without wasting that much screen time. I still think that if the whole show focused more on Shinn, this'd be a much better set for the eventual third series, as people would not get tired of Yamato. I liked Kira from SEED very much. But still, to me, Kira from Destiny was just a dummy. And this pretty much leads to me discarding him as a good material for the main protagonist of the next CE show if there is one. |

Not too sure what to make of Shinn.
He didn't seem professional enough to fit in ZAFT if you ask me. I mean, in Seed you had unprofessionals in the military (Kira & Friends) due to circumstances. Mwu Flaga was a professional, as were Natatille and Murre, even if their views differed. Rau's group with Yzak, Dearka, Nicole, and Athrun were professional, if full of themsleves with different temperments and personalities. Any other time it focused on ZAFT or the EA it was generally very professional. Shinn was a very good pilot, but he didn't seem to have much else going for him. He was unreasonable, he was mouthy, he was sloppy about being in uniform, and he didn't seem to be particularly smart about certain things. I would say he wasn't suitable for combat. And technically he wasn't a combat pilot. He was a test pilot chosen to work on the Impulse Gundam. Due to circumstances, he, Impulse, and Minerva were launched too early and sent into combat. Maybe they should have tried to emphasis that fact a bit more? |

Maybe. Basically, I think Shinn was chosen due to his "SEED" factor about which Dullindal knew. Pretty much everything, from his position in ZAFT, through his release from prison despite the obvious treason (sending back Stellar) to being assigned as FAITH member he owed to the Chairman, really. Asuka was a talented and superb pilot, but ultimately failed as a soldier on many disciplinary grounds. Still, it was his anger and drive for vengeance that made him go on with fighting so I think the producers wanted to focus on that. There were just too many ways to explore this character, but they were wasted for the old cast which brought nothing new in return. Just the same old crap about eternal peace and not siding with any hate-fueled side. etc etc.

Rau was a better and more easily understood manipulator than Dullindal was. Certainly one could appreciate his more hands on and practical approach to villiany. Gil almost seemed like he wanted to be beaten at the end.
How else could they have explored his character? Maybe have him go AWOL? |

WOW!!!! Now your nit picking!!!!! Does it really matter??? I did make it clear in regards to soldiers as well as Combatants... (meaning serviceman in combat roles that does include fighter pilots) Sure they piss off the brass but hey they get the job done.
